Applications & Uses

Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
Properties and Uses

For spray applications, Phenodur VPW 1942 has to be diluted with water in the usual ways. For applications on roller coaters, the viscosity should be increased by means of thickening agents and/or organic solvents like hexylglycol. In both cases, additions of organic solvents like hexylglycol improve flow and surface wetting and reduce the tendency of a quick physical drying.

The usual stoving cycle is 12 min at 200 °C, "shock-curing" at PMT`s of approx. 300 °C is possible.

The cured films are at a thickness of approx. 5 µm exhibit a golden color and very good adhesion, corrosion protection, flexibility and solvent resistance.

Technical Details & Test Data

Dilutabilty

Phenodur VPW 1942 is unlimited dilutable with deionized water. Water, in combination with organic solvents e. g. butyl glycol is suitable too.

Compatibility

Phenodur VPW 1942 is designed as sole-binder, the compatibility with other resins is limited. Combinations with other polymer dispersions and water-dilutable melamine resins are possible, storage stability and compatibility have to be tested in advance. Such additions of other resins might influence the rheological behavior of Phenodur VPW 1942 greatly.
